What Causes Weakness And Irritation While Not Eating For 3-4 Hours?

If I don t eat every 3-4 hours I get weak, cannot concentrate and am very irritable and emotional, and If I eat sugar without anything good I get a feeling of light headedness then I end up being hungrier than I was with out that snack so I go eat something like pasta... Now I do have a really fast metabolism, and so I m wondering if that can factor into it too...
